| Objective To analyze the therapeutic effect of three-dimensional conformal involved-field radiotherapy (3D-CRT)combined with chemotherapy on limited disease stage small cell lung cancer (LD-SCLC). Methods The clinical data of 85 patients of LD-SCLC treated with 3D-CRT at the dose of 2 Gy/fraction, 5 fractions per week for 5-7 weeks, with the median dose of 50 Gy (46-66 Gy), combined with 4-8 cycles chemotherapy, 64 males and 21 females, aged 29-76,were collected and analyzed. Results The complete remission rate, partial remission rate, stability rate, and total effective rate were 36.5% , 52.9% , 10.6% , and 89.4% , respectively. The median survival time was 18 months,with the 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival rates of 65.9%, 33.8%, and 15.9%, respectively. The local recurrence rate, distant metastasis rate, and local recurrence+distant metastasis rate were 15.2% (9/85), 49.2% (29/85), and 35.6% (21/85), respectively. Body weight, response to therapy,cycles for chemotherapy, and concurrent chemo-radiotherapy were all independent prognostic factors for LD-SCLC. Cox multivariable regression was used to analyze the prognostic factors. Conclusions Involved-field radiotherapy is effective for LD-SCLC. Distance metastasis is the main cause of treatment failure. |
